Mr. Mitchell's notes:
- nothing more compelling than a great story...hint, hint (coming soon)
- ESPN on earth - the score give on the Gainsville State and Faith Christian along with the story.
- ESPN in heaven - the story about how Faith Christian was "Jesus", no score needed
Question for the staff: what is the most important thing you will take from reading this book?

BEST CHAPTER: Chapter 5 - An Investment That Keep On Giving
Mr. Mitchell's Chapter 5 notes:
Probably the most important point I try to drive across to anyone who is a donor to FMCS - "thank you for your investment into our children!"
This chapters starts to focus on a key area right now - finances! It used to be that when people asked for help, they needed a certain amount to help cover what they could not pay. Now it is getting to the point that they want it all - a full ride - and we do not do that.
However, and I mean HOWEVER: I totally agree with the last sentence of the second paragraph on page 54!
If you have never read it, please read Jenna Billman's testimony on our website: http://fmcs-fl.org/category/praise/
pg. 55-57 - wow, no cell phones!
Pg. 57-59, question to ask: great! As well as ROI
Out of this chapter, weren't he stories powerful? Coming soon "Tell Ma A Story..."
Affluenza - food one!
Stewardship = Surrender!
Page 63 is excellent!

Chapter 4: The Human Touch
Well, I would think that the teacher that has sent over 33,000 personalized birthday letters has to be an amazing highlight. I wonder if that is what stands out the most to his students - the letter and the personal attention they received over knowledge?
I think this chapter focuses on something that needs to be a selling point for our school - personalized attention from teachers. The statement on page 46 starts our conversation - "(teachers) are living curriculum, and the Scriptures teach us that when students are fully taught, they will be like their teachers." So I wonder, how are your students like you? what do you think they "copy" from you or remember about you?
